Origin: a Latin derivative
meaning "Gift of the Earth."
The pink peppercorn is actually a fruit from the Schinus molle tree, a tall evergreen tree. The ancient Incans considered this tree and its small pink fruits sacred, and lined the perimeters of their temples and palaces with them. While similar in appearance to a black peppercorn, Pink Pepper is actually unrelated to true pepper.
